Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a technology by which a volatile organic compound can be recovered effectively from a mixed gas containing the organic compound in the state of gas to avoid the compound from being diffused in atmospheric air.
  • Volatile hydrocarbons are diffused from storage tanks in atmospheric air when atmospheric temperature rises. Also, the volatile hydrocarbons are diffused in atmospheric air when they are flowed into storage tanks or when they are filled in tank lorries from storage tanks. Diffused hydrocarbons are said to form substances causing "photochemical smog". Accordingly, regulations have been carried out in Japan and other countries to control the concentration of the hydrocarbons in an exhaust or flue gas, and severer regulations have lately been issued in several countries, the United States being a leading country.
  • a standard hydrocarbon concentration in the exhaust or flue gases at outlets is established under a prefectural regulation in Nagoya, Japan, which is the severest regulation in the past and by which the hydrocarbon concentration at the outlets is prescribed to be lower than 5% by volume (corresponding to about 80% by volume in terms of the recovery (as referred hereinafter) of hydrocarbon from a gas having a hydrocarbon concentration of 21% by volume at inlets).
  • VOC volatile organic compound
  • the hydrocarbon vapor In the adsorption method, however, there is a danger of firing since a large amount of the heat of adsorption will be generated.
  • the hydrocarbon vapor In the low temperature processing method, the hydrocarbon vapor must be cooled down to a temperature lower than -35°C in order to increase the recovery percentage since the vapor has a very low liquefying temperature and thus this method is economically disadvantageous.
  • Suitable liquids used for the absorption are ones which are insoluble in water, have a strong absorption power to hydrocarbon gas, and having such a low vapor pressure such that the liquids will not be lost when hydrocarbon is separated for recovery.
  • the liquids comprise, as a major component, at least one compound selected from the group consisting of phthalic acid esters, silicic acid esters, phosphoric acid esters, fatty acid esters, alkylbenzene, alkylnaphthalene, and ⁇ -olefins .
  • the liquids may additionally contain less than 75% by weight of a refined mineral oil having a viscosity of 5 to 20 cst at a temperature of 37.8°C, a boiling point of 250 to 450°C, and an average molecular weight of 200 to 350.
  • the hydrocarbon concentration at the outlets can be controlled lower than 5% by volume by using a system composed of an absorption column, desorption column, recovery column, and vacuum pump.
  • the absorption method has a defect that a severer standard regulated under, for example, the EPA in the United States can not be cleared.
  • the volatile organic compound will remain in the desorption column in an amount corresponding to the compound's vapor pressure under a reduced pressure at the stage of regeneration of the absorption liquid in the desorption column, and the remaining compound will obstruct the increase of the recovery percentage of volatile organic compound in the absorption column.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a novel method for separating or recovering a volatile organic compound from a gas or vapor of gasoline, kerosene, benzene, or alcohol discharged from storage tanks, tank trucks, or tank lorries at a recovery of 90 to 96% by volume.
  • gas as used hereinafter is intended to have the meaning of gas, vapor and mist.
  • the present invention relates to processes for separating a volatile organic compound from a gas containing the organic compound according to claims 1-4.
  • Fig. 1 is a graph showing the relationship between the pressure in a desorption column and a concentration of a volatile organic compound contained in a gas to be introduced into a first absorption column.
  • Fig. 2 is a first flow diagram of a system for conducting the process according to the present invention.
  • Fig. 3 is a second flow diagram of a system for conducting the process according to the present invention.
  • Fig. 4 is a flow diagram of a modified system for conducting the process of the present invention.
  • P is an operating pressure (mmHg) in a first and second desorption column
  • f is a concentration (molar fraction) of a volatile organic compound in a gas to be introduced into the first absorption column at a lower part in the first absorption column.
  • the equation A shows the relationship between the concentration of a volatile organic compound in the feed gas and an operating pressure at the first and second desorption column keeping out of explosion limit of the second desorption column outlet gas by regulating air injection rate to the second desorption column at a recovery of 95% by volume of a volatile organic compound.
  • the equation A' shows the relationship between the concentration of a volatile organic compound in the feed gas and an operating pressure at the first and second desorption column keeping out of explosion limit of the second desorption column outlet gas by regulating air injection rate to the second desorption column at a recovery of 90% by volume of a volatile organic compound.
  • the amount of entrainment of the liquid accompanied with the evaporation of hydrocarbon will increase with increase in the amount of volatile organic compound contained in the rich oil, and 35% by mole (10% by weight) is an upper limit of the amount of the volatile organic compound which is permitted to contain in the rich oil, derived empirically through actual operation and from the view point of safety. When the amount is more than 35% by mole, the entrainment will occur such an extent that operation is impossible.
  • the concentration of the hydrocarbon in the rich oil will decrease with decrease in the concentration of the hydrocarbon in the gas to be fed to the first absorption column, since the amount of hydrocarbon accumulated in the liquid will decrease.
  • the pressure in the first desorption column necessary to secure the amount in the liquid at lower than 35% by mole may become higher with decrease in the concentration of the hydrocarbon in the gas to be fed into the first absorption column.
  • the second desorption column is operated at the same pressure as the first desorption column.
  • the line C shows the relationship between operating pressure P necessary when the air is not bubbled and concentration f of a volatile organic compound in the gas to be fed into the first absorption column at a lower part in the first absorption column at a recovery of the volatile organic compound of 95% by volume.
  • Fig. 2 is a first flow diagram of a system for conducting a first and third embodiments of the present invention.
  • a gas containing the organic compound for example a hydrocarbon gas
  • a liquid for first absorption introduced through a line 13 into the first absorption column at an upper part in the first absorption column to separate a major portion of the organic compound from the gas.
  • the gas thus treated is introduced through a line 14 into a second absorption column at a lower part in the second absorption column 2.
  • the liquid which absorbed the volatile organic compound in the first absorption column 1 is introduced through a line 12 into a first desorption column 3 at an upper part in the first desorption column 3.
  • Operating conditions for the first desorption column are determined so that the conditions of the present invention are satisfied.
  • the volatile organic compound is separated from the absorption liquid.
  • Absorption liquid from which the volatile organic compound was separated is recycled through a line 13 back to the first absorption column 1 as the liquid for first absorption.
  • the gas containing the organic compound separated in the second desorption column is fed through lines 17 and 19 to a column 5 for recovering the volatile organic compound.
  • a liquid for recovering the volatile organic compound is supplied through a line 20 to an upper part in the recovery column 5.
  • the volatile organic compound is recovered from a line 21, and a treated gas is recycled backed to the first absorption column 1.
  • a liquid (second absorption liquid) which absorbed a remaining organic compound in the second absorption column is introduced through a line 15 into a second desorption column 4 at an upper part in the second desorption column.
  • the second absorption liquid from which the volatile organic compound was separated is recycled through a line 16 back to the second absorption column 2.
  • the gaseous organic compound separated in the second desorption column is fed through lines 17 and 19 to the column 5 for recovering the volatile organic compound.
  • Fig. 3 is a second flow diagram of a system for conducting a second and fourth embodiments of the present invention.
  • the diagram is the same as that of Fig. 2 except that an air introducing pipe 23 for air bubbling is connected to a lower part in the second desorption column 4.
  • Fig. 4 is a flow diagram of a modified system of the process of the present invention in which a third desorption column 6 is provided below the second desorption column 4 shown in Fig. 3, and air bubbling is conducted in a third desorption column 6.
  • the relationship between the pressure (regeneration pressure) in each of the desorption columns and the concentration of a so-called inert component other than the hydrocarbon is not affected even if a gas flow rate was varied.
  • air introducing rate and total flow rate in a vacuum pump are varied in proportion to gas flow rate.
  • Example 1 (Tables 4 to 5), air was bubbled in the second desorption column at a gas flow rate of 1000 Nm 3 /hr at the inlet in the first absorption column, and in Example 3 (Tables 8 to 9), air was not bubbled but the inlet gas flow rate was the same as in Example 1.
  • the recovery of the hydrocarbon was aimed at 90% by volume in both Examples.
  • Example 1 The pressure in the first and second desorption columns in Example 1 (Tables 4 to 5) was higher than that in Example 3 (Tables 8 to 9) since air was bubbled in Example 1.
  • the necessary gas flow rate of vacuum pump was 98 m 3 /min at maximum in Example 1 (Tables 4 to 5) while the necessary gas flow rate was 110 m 3 /min in Example 3 (Tables 8 to 9) at maximum. This indicates that the necessary gas flow rate of a vacuum pump was higher by 12 m 3 /min in Example 3 wherein air was not bubbled.
  • Example 2 (Tables 6 to 7), air was bubbled in the second desorption column at a gas flow rate of 1000 Nm 3 /hr at the inlet in the first absorption column, and in Example 4 (Tables 10 to 11), air was not bubbled but the inlet gas flow rate was the same as in Example 2.
  • the recovery of the hydrocarbon was aimed at 95% by volume in both Examples.
  • Example 2 The pressure in the first and second desorption columns in Example 2 (Tables 6 to 7) was higher than that in Example 4 (Tables 10 to 11) since air was bubbled in Example 2.
  • the necessary gas flow rate of vacuum pump was 160 m 3 /min at maximum in Example 2 (Tables 6 to 7) while the necessary gas flow rate was 200 m 3 /min in Example 4 (Tables 10 to 11) at maximum. This indicates that the necessary gas flow rate of a vacuum pump was higher by 40 m 3 /min in Example 4 wherein air was not bubbled.
  • Example 2 As in the cases in Examples 2 and 4, calculation was performed for the number of necessary vacuum pumps having a rated capacity of 50 m 3 /min (at a suction pressure of 25 mmHg) from the data shown in Tables 6 to 7 and 10 to 11 to obtain the results that 2.5 to 3.8 vacuum pumps are necessary to be used in Example 2 (Tables 6 to 7) while 3.1 to 7.1 vacuum pumps are necessary in Example 4 (Tables 10 to 11) as shown in detail in Table 2.
